[0153]Tramadol hydrochloride and polyethylene oxide powder and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose were mixed in a free-fall mixer. The magnesium stearate powder was then mixed in. The powder mixture was pressed into tablets on a Korsch EK0 eccentric press. The tabletting tool has a diameter of 10 mm and a radius of curvature of 8 mm. These tablets were further processed with the assistance of a laboratory heat sealer (Kopp laboratory sealer SPGE 20, Hot & Cold tack heat-sealed seam strength tester from Kopp). The heat sealing bars were replaced with two metal rails, into each of which had been milled a concavity having a diameter of 10 mm and a radius of 8 mm. The surface of the concavity is co...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a process for the production of abuse-proofed, thermoformed dosage forms containing, apart from one or more active ingredients with potential for abuse and optionally physiologically acceptable auxiliary substances, at least one synthetic or natural polymer with a breaking strength of at least 500 N.

Description

[0001]The present invention relates to a process for the production of solid pharmaceutical dosage forms with at least reduced potential for abuse, by[0002]a) shaping a formulation mixture containing at least one active ingredient with potential for abuse and at least one synthetic or natural polymer (C), which exhibits a breaking strength of at least 500 N, into formed articles by application of force,[0003]b) optionally singulating the formed articles and optionally in each case grading them by size and,[0004]c) after or during heating at least to the softening point of the polymer (C), exposing the formed articles to force until they have a breaking hardness of at least 500 N, optionally providing them with a cover and optionally mixing all the formed articles back together again.BACKGROUND OF INVENTION[0005]Many pharmaceutical active ingredients, in addition to having excellent activity in their appropriate application, also have potential for abuse, i.e. they can be used by an ...
